I re-do the capture on an old laptop with UHCI controller, and now get the SET ADDRESS message. 67 4.616278 1.1.0 host USBHUB 64 CLEAR_FEATURE Response [Port 5: C_PORT_RESET] 68 4.676011 host 1.0.0 USB 64 GET DESCRIPTOR Request DEVICE 69 4.676123 1.0.0 host USB 82 GET DESCRIPTOR Response DEVICE 70 4.676139 host 1.1.0 USBHUB 64 SET_FEATURE Request [Port 5: PORT_RESET] 71 4.676152 1.1.0 host USBHUB 64 SET_FEATURE Response [Port 5: PORT_RESET] 72 4.744000 host 1.1.0 USBHUB 64 GET_STATUS Request [Port 5] 73 4.744250 1.1.0 host USBHUB 68 GET_STATUS Response [Port 5] 74 4.744266 host 1.1.0 USBHUB 64 CLEAR_FEATURE Request [Port 5: C_PORT_RESET] 75 4.744278 1.1.0 host USBHUB 64 CLEAR_FEATURE Response [Port 5: C_PORT_RESET] 76 4.804004 host 1.0.0 USB 64 SET ADDRESS Request 77 4.804122 1.0.0 host USB 64 SET ADDRESS Response 78 4.832003 host 1.6.0 USB 64 GET DESCRIPTOR Request DEVICE 79 4.832117 1.6.0 host USB 82 GET DESCRIPTOR Response DEVICE 80 4.832141 host 1.6.0 USB 64 GET DESCRIPTOR Request BOS Thank you very much :)
